/*! \page builddependencies Generating build dependencies automatically

As we start updating packages for the next Red Hat distro, I'd like to see
packages start to make use of build dependencies. Basically build
dependencies are just like install dependencies, but they are resolved
against the build system just after parsing the spec file. Syntactically,
build dependencies look just like install dependencies in a spec file with
"Build" prefixed:

\verbatim
	BuildPrereqs:
	BuildRequires:
	BuildConflicts:
\endverbatim

All the above dependencies include versions, files, existence/range tests, etc.
The build dependency checking can also be turned off with --nodeps if necessary
just like install dependency checking can. Eventually, build dependencies will
be automated in rpm, but the major impediment to that effort is the engineering
required to maintain the pretense that src rpm's are "noarch".

Meanwhile, I've added a package called "InDependence-1.0" to powertools-6.2
that may be of use in detecting build dependencies that can be added to
spec files as part of rebuilding packages for Red Hat 6.2.

Here's a short example of how to generate the package/file names that were used
while building gnorpm using InDependence:

\verbatim
	rpm -U /mnt/redhat/comps/powertools/6.2/i386/InDependence-1.0-3.i386.rpm
	rpm -i /mnt/redhat/comps/dist/6.2/SRPMS/gnorpm-0.9-11.src.rpm
	cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
	dep -detail rpmbuild -ba gnorpm.spec >& xxx
	...
	(the build will take longer since both dep and strace are pigs)
	...
	grep -- '::' xxx > yyy
\endverbatim

\verbatim
Aside:	The dep perl wrapper is a "pig" only because it's exec'ing
		rpm -qf <filename>
        in order to turn filenames into package names. There are easier/faster
	ways to get this information...

	There's no way to speed up the
		/sbin/strace -q -etrace=open,execve -o ...
	command itself. The eventual implementation in rpm will snatch the
	same open/execve syscalls using LD_PRELOAD.

	Patches cheerfully accepted :-)
\endverbatim

The information can be used to generate build prerequisites. What is still
needed is a sensible approach on

\verbatim
	1) eliminating obvious common dependencies (e.g. libtool, egcs).
	2) identifying (and removing for now) per-platform build dependencies.
	3) deciding on whether to add the build dependency on a file or on the
	package that contains the file.
	4) if adding a dependency on a package, choosing version ranges as
	appropriate.

but that's up to individual packagers.
